Chennai, October 17 - Thalapathy Vijay's action drama film Leo has now sold the highest number of advance tickets by an Indian movie of 2023 for the opening day. The advance booking of Lokesh Kanagaraj's directorial was opened a couple of days ago, and since then, it has been unstoppable and has created records for a Tamil title.

"Leo" has beaten superstar Shah Rukh Khan's mega-blockbuster Jawan which sold approx. 15.75 lakh tickets in advance for the opening day last month. The Thalapathy Vijay-starrer has crossed this mark with still more than a left for the release. The current advance sold tickets count of "Leo" is approx. 16 lakh and it is expected to finish around 20 lakh for the opening day.



While "Leo" has crossed "Jawan" in ticket count, the movie is still far behind in terms of advance gross collection. The SRK-led movie scored approx. 41 crores advance booking for the opening day while around 31 crores from similar numbers of tickets sold. The average ticket price for "Jawan" was Rs 251/ticket and the same is Rs 202 for "Leo", which is the main reason for the difference in gross collection.

The advance booking of "Leo" is led by the original Tamil version which has so far sold 13.75 lakh, followed by the Telugu version with approx. 2.10 lakh and Hindi with 20K. The response to the Hindi version of the movie is surprisingly good despite the fact that it won't be released in national multiplex chains.

"Leo" is produced by Seven Screen Studio and stars Vijay in the title role alongside Trisha Krishnan, Sanjay Dutt, Arjun Sarja, and Mysskin, among others. It will be released on October 19 in Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, and Kannada languages in the regular as well as the IMAX format.
